In various gundam series we have seen orphans and what not running around, which lead me to thinking. Are thier any organizations like Child protective services, or other organizations dedicated to children?

That is hilariously cruel. Other than the time when the feddies tried to take the kids from the White Base, I can't think of anything official. I do remember Char randomly picking up some kids while away from the Argama. You know, cuz warships are the best place for war orphans.

I know! To pay off all of their development costs for Gundams, the feddies and what not could open up day care centers on their battleships!

Incidentally, one of the things on Shagia Frost's To-Do List was "destroy the Newtype lab-thing".
Which he did, though he didn't quite manage to entirely destroy the place, since one mobile suit hidden in a corner in there somewhere managed to survive in one piece.

"You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but take a boat in the air you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down. Tells you she's hurting before she keens. Makes her a home."

Gadget wrote:Shin may grew up in an ophanage, sponsered by an Orb office. But I do suspect he went to a militery acandemy.

Yeah. that's incorrect. Shin had a family and he was quite living with them until they were killed in the attack on ORB by the EA. Afterwards with recommendations from Captain Todaka he immigrates to ZAFT and eventually joins their military.

Speaking of labs, In SEED, were the extendeds orphans or were some of them taken by force? In Auel's flashback, there were quite a bit of kids there. I've pondered that they ran a fake adoption agency, while really throwing those kids to the Blue Cosmos.

I actually thought that they were genetically engineered, since you see kids floating in a errrr...i dont know what to call it so ill just say "canisters" or "giant test tubes" and you can also see their brains in one room

Sven from STAGAZER is also a victim of EA child adoption system but he turned to be one of the awesome pilots of CE

"What did catch my eye, however, was a podcast named Gundamn!. At first I thought it was a podcast about firearms and [rednecks] discussing their collection, but after looking at the episode titles I was sold." - Xhavalor
